Going back and reading my last few months of lists, I must say I see something odd. I'm reading a LOT about God. The Beth I know NEVER speaks about religion because she a) is a Taoist b) HATES talking about religion (mainly cuz she's clueless) and c) could care less. Yet, more and more I'm blogging about God, my relationship with God, and my spiritual growth. That is so not me.
More and more I read in my blog about working out. Trust me, the Beth I know NEVER works out. Her core philosophy, even more so than the uncarved block, is "when I get in the mood to exercise, I lay down till it passes" Yet, just this morning I worked out for 35 minutes and did 5 level 5 sprints. I also did a FULL workout TWICE yesterday. That is so not me.
Yet, it is me. My values have changed, my heart has changed, my life has changed. Continually changing? Well now THAT'S me.
For my friends and my family who are sick and tired of hearing me gab on about God and health and positivity and gratitude, I say "I love you but you may want to move on to another blog. Mine is not for you" My blog is not about followers (I've already got 17 more than I thought I would) or about hits or about comments (though I'm like a little kid with a cookie when I see I have one). This blog is by me, about me and for me. This is my place to go to pay it forward and release positive energy into the universe, to purge myself of the negativity, to vent, to play, to dance barefoot in the sand and to release what must be released. It is my cheap therapy. You are welcomed to say and play but please don't eat the daisies.
Yup, that's me
